ACORD is an insurance company funded non-profit organization that has set standards for the insurance industry for the past 40 years. Last week ACORD announced a major initiative to attract software innovation to the insurance industry. This initiative is open to ALL software developers.
The ACORD Insurance Innovation Challenge is the first insurance-specific technology and innovation competition. It is open to individuals or organizations of any size, from anywhere in the world, with new ideas that can be applied to transform the way the insurance industry does business.
The deadline for applications is April 1, 2015. Finalists will receive a speaking slot before an audience of potential investors, partners, press and employers at ACORD2015, the flagship ACORD event taking place November 2-4, 2015 in Boca Raton, Florida. At ACORD2015, judges will select the winners, some of whom will receive a cash prize to help them bring their ideas to fruition.
If you are interested in obtaining more information, please let me know.
